Today’s learning…
Before we get busy, here is a fun movement song to wake us all up and get our brains and bodies ready to learn.
Literacy – normal Monday routine of RWI
- Phonics– Practice all sounds on your simple sound chart. Play this word building game by using the sounds or letters in the words ‘primary 1 are the best’ to see how many of your own words you can make. I will give you one to get you started- s-t-a-r = star!
- Reading– Play some more of ‘Teach Your Monster To Read’ by logging in using your account details. I see some of you have been very busy with your monster over the last weeks, well done!
- Also, work on the reading of the speed sounds, green words, red words and the short story on your reading sheet booklet.
Red literacy group- sheet 9
Green literacy group- sheet 18
Pink literacy group- sheet 34
Complete the ‘questions to talk about’ section detailed at the bottom of page.
- Writing– Do the ‘Hold A Sentence’ on the bottom of the reading page detailed above in your blue jotter. Please do this on the lined section and look at your ‘reminder of writing skills’ sheet to help. Steps are 1. Grown up reads sentence. 2. Practise saying the sentence aloud a number of times until child remembers it. 3. Grown up models how to write the sentence (can use back pages of blue jotter or spare paper from home) 4. Child writes sentence independently without a visual. Encourage them to keep saying it as they write. 5. Check the writing. What went well, what do they need to remember for next time?
